I hope everyone is enjoying the lively and well informed discussion happening in the Tim Sweeney thread on gaming side.

Steam threads on gaming are always good to add to my ignore list.

My predilection for Vegemite + cheese on toast ("tiger toast") will always be my undoing.

Larian put up a fun video showing off a bit of Original Sin 2 co-op shenanigans.

I think I might purchase FFXV on Origin. STEAM is an uncurated cesspool right now and I figure it's time to try out some alternatives.

oh you're leaving Steam for Origin are you? Leave then, leave like your hero left.

 

[Mivey]

I know what you mean. It makes me feel just dirty knowing that the same platform and API that the games I like and buy are used by so many games I don't like. It's how I used to organize book burnings so I could feel better about lending from my local library. Strangely enough it always attracted these people in brown uniforms, and these Hindu symbols.

 

[Momentary]

Well... to tell you the truth my OCD won't allow it to happen since I already have all the Final Fantasies on STEAM anyways.

But for real all these asset flipped games really hinder those devs that put real work into games that need time on the storefront.

I guess I'm just salty. I'm a big fan of shmups and since they are already a niche genre it's really hard for them to get any notoriety.

Origin does seem to have come a long ways from when I last used it though.

 

[someguyinahat]

After FOUR years the game is getting released in October

http://store.steampowered.com/app/253230/A_Hat_in_Time/

Price will be $30.

This game is relevant to my interests.

Origin has 0 shmups.

It's "hat" in time, not "hidden object" in time.

Edit: oh there's a hat

When does TF2's campaign kick up a notch? It's gunplay is not that exciting these first few levels

 

[GoldandBlue]

I still never see all these assist flip games apparently taking up space on the storefront.

The only thing you need is a Jim Sterling video.

Just click on new releases and you will have all of them.

So not the storefront?

If you're using Enhanced Steam.

 

[Pixieking]

The new releases tab is on the storefront.

Are you being serious? I can't tell.

My "New Releases" tab has:

Agents of Mayhem
Observer
Distrust
Darkwood
Nidhogg2
West of Loathing
Batman - The Enemy Within
The Escapists 2

And 8 smaller games. None of which could even come close to "asset flip".

 

[illusionary]

"Effect and cause" (mission 5) is the most innovative and enjoyable part of the campaign IMO, but I found all of the missions around that part of the campaign to be very well done. Which mission are you currently up to?

Well, if you click the "New and trending" tab you ain't gonna get many asset flips.
On the other hand, if you click "New releases" you get this:

And if you click on "See more" you'll get a couple of easily noticeable asset flips.

So

1) Half that page is devoted to DLC for this:

Fantasy Grounds is a hybrid application which allows you to play and create your own RPG games. It facilitates this play and provides some optional add-on Adventure modules which can be loaded and played with very little preparation. Each game will require a GameMaster (GM) and one or more

2) Books and Pixel Puzzles seem totally legit.

3) You mean to say that I have to make a specific set of choices and mouse clicks for me to see some stuff that may be asset flips.

*shrugs*

Okays. I'm fine with that, considering how hard I still find it to come across actual asset flips.

Biomutant gameplay demo.

A Gaffer who played the demo said it feels like Devil May Cry lite.

The point is, all new releases are going to go through that tab, so all asset flips are going to eventually show up there. It's noise for those who use that tab.
I'm not the one complaining, though, I'm just saying what Jim complains about.

Ah, well, Jim skews his own store page. If you look at asset flips, Steam's algorithms are more likely to show you asset flips, I believe.

"Angry man finds constant reasons to be angry" is just tiresome after awhile.

I guess so. I understand the complains, and I think it's more about don't letting these assholes get money for this shit practices than anything else.
I still find his jimpressions funny.

 

[Jawmuncher]

I'm impressed dreadout actually puts a long as road for you to run on if you decide to say fuck it at the beginning of the game.

I remember Steam Train doing that just for the lols and ended up with a road that fucking loops itself.

Yeah I think that's where I'm at now. Honesty was expecting to not get very far and there just being a convenient obstruction or something.

Don't be silly, how would have you arrived if there was something on the road?
Realizm!!!

 

[Ryne]

F1 2017 preload is available.

*excited*

I'm so ready to put in 1000 more hours.

I wish I could do steam giveaways , I'd giveaway this game twice.

Ughhh... I want my key!

 

[Nabs]

I'm really liking Unbox. It's like bunny hop the game. All I need is a quake-style rocket launcher, and I'm set.

 

[jtb]

"Effect and cause" (mission 5) is the most innovative and enjoyable part of the campaign IMO, but I found all of the missions around that part of the campaign to be very well done. Which mission are you currently up to?

I think the second or third mission. It's a big sludge disposal facility.

Campaign is surprisingly Mirror's Edge like (particularly the setting of this level, reminds me of Jackknife). a lot of platforming, focus on speedily dashing through combat encounters. It's fine, just hasn't really grabbed me yet

 

[Teggy]

I'm really liking Unbox. It's like bunny hop the game. All I need is a quake-style rocket launcher, and I'm set.

It's a cute game. The act of trying to roll a box around got a bit frustrating after a while, so I finished it but didn't do too much more than the minimum. Lots to collect if you are willing to fight the controls.

Mission 4 is definitely where it starts to get pretty interesting.

 

[Aaron D.]

Distrust is out

I got a 25% Off Coupon today 'cause I own the publisher's other game, Beholder. I believe that game has been in a bundle a few times, so many may own it already by default.

It's valid through 8/30 and it stacks with the game's 20% launch-week promo, bringing the final price to $7.19.

Not too shabby. I had the game Wishlisted for a bit now so I'm going to keep a close eye on its reception over the next few days. My gaming schedule is kinda booked atm, but I might take the dive at that price.

Keep going with it - not much tops the sense of fluidity of motion that many of the later missions bring, The comparison to Mirror's Edge is indeed very apt.

 

[zkylon]

some of these optional boss fights are really tough. i feel like maybe i need to gear up a little more cos they're pretty difficult and long

i feel i'm pretty close to the end, i don't think there's many other places for me to go

 

[Nabs]

I thought I'd feel that way as well, but it ended up clicking with me. Most of my time is spent bunnyhopping all over the map, spinning the camera around like a mad man.

I bet good old Jim doesn't even have that tab, since it's an ES feature.

Have you seen any bees?

Did you find yourself?

 

[Rickenslacker]

Kinda surprised how many journalists are getting fucking rocked by the first level. I honestly didn't think it was very hard.

Might have to do another pass on the easy mode. Hmmmmm...

This seems like something you should stick to your guns with considering most podcasts I listen to peg the likes of the original Sonic games as something complicated.

 

[zkylon]

Have you seen any bees?

Did you find yourself?

i've seen a bit of the bee area i think, but couldn't find a way to access the rest of it

there's a couple more places i need to visit but yeah, i think i've mostly cleared the game

 

[Jawmuncher]

Bees???

 

[kagamin]

Really enjoyed Zero no Kiseki, gonna hold off on Ao though since I wanna be able to either play it without using the spreadsheet or play it with a fan translation at minimum.

 

[Servizio]

Bees???

Beads.

 

[Teeth]

There's an impression or two in the Gamescom thread that mention it's "tough as nails" and "not for the mainstream"...but I think at least one of those people is a journalist or blogger. Someone from SteamGAF needs to head to Gamescom and tell me if we accidentally created an "I Want To Be the Guy" situation

Also, don't worry, we're definitely not changing Hard (it's my preferred way to play) and Normal likely will just get tweaks. It's more so Easy that I'm concerned about.

 

[Teggy]

About 12 hrs into Ys: Celceta because I own so many of the games I figured I should play one (and felt like playing in bed). Thought I was playing the latest game, but oops this is the 4th game. And there were two other versions of the 4th game. What a wacky series.

It's ok. I like story in my games, but the way this game makes you walk into every house in town before it lets you continue is a drag.

 

[kagamin]

Sounds like a good old case of StarTropics syndrome.
